(3) it is made before a mediator or judicial officer, is memorialized either before a certified reporter or in an audio or video recording, and, in the case of a mediated agreement, the parties state that the terms of the agreement may be disclosed, as necessary, to gain court approval of the agreement or to enforce the agreement.
(c) Unsworn Declarations Under Penalty of Perjury. When these rules require or allow a matter to be supported, evidenced, established, or proved by a sworn written declaration, verification, certificate, statement, oath, or affidavit, the same may be unsworn--and have the same force and effect--if it is:
“I declare [or certify, verify or state] under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on [date].
[Signature].”
This rule does not apply to a deposition, oath of office, or an oath required to be taken before a specified official other than a notarial officer.
(2) Order and Further Proceedings. If the court finds that the copy is accurate, the court must order the copy substituted for the lost or destroyed record. If the court finds that the copy may not be accurate, it may take further evidence and direct the parties to prepare an accurate copy of the record based on that evidence.
(2) Electronic Distribution. The clerk may distribute minute entries, notices and other court-generated documents to a party or a party's attorney by electronic means. Electronic distribution of a document is complete when the clerk transmits it to the email address that the party or attorney has provided to the clerk.
